    Trying to find GU alloy bar winch THREAD

    I am 80% sure I read somewhere on here of someone using an Gu alloy bar with a chassis mount winch bracket for a winch but I can't find the posts. Cn someone give me a hand or pics of how and what was done. WooHoo

    Hi Mego,

    Not sure of the thread but is this what you're after?
    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/251113423...84.m1423.l2649
    When these we advertised he had about 10 adds and was a new ebayer so had no feedback, as soon as this one sold his other adds disappeared. I've also got an alloy bar so am interested as well.
    There is also this site:

    Cheers

    Hi Guys

    I'm David from http://www.nissangupatrol.com and www.autostuff.com.au I have read above the comments and would like to thank you for the positive feedback.

    I thought I would post a question after reading the above, Is it a great benefit to have access to the fitting instruction for the cradle? I have made the "chassis differences" page http://www.nissangupatrol.com/chassis-differences.html available to everyone but given the cost involved in developing the fitting instructions I decided to make them password protected to try and protect my intellectual property. I have since thought that without people like you I wouldn't have a business and that I should be giving something back to the community that supports me. I would welcome your thoughts on this.

    David
